Capítulo 1017: Chapter 56: Innate Spiritual Wisdom
Shishan County.
Leaving the temple.
Jiang Ning imdiately expanded his Divine Sense.
With his now powerful spiritual power, already having consolidated the strength of a Yin God, his Divine Sense spread out, instantly covering about one-fifth of Shishan County.
At this mont.
Countless streams of information flowed into his mind.
The myriad aspects of the world, the multitude of living beings, countless conversations also surfaced in his mind.
Yet at this mont, he not only did not feel any discomfort in his head, but instead, his mind beca increasingly clear, ethereal, and his thoughts were racing.
A mont later.
Not in this area, he thought to himself, and then with a flash, he disappeared from the spot.
With the range his Divine Sense could now encompass, he only needed to traverse the entire Shishan County to sweep through it with his strong Divine Sense, thus capable of finding any person in the city.
…
On the other side.
Inside a stone house.
Five people sat separately around.
Each of them had incredibly robust bodies, their exposed muscles bulging like blocks of iron.
Amongst the blocks of iron, there were black lines akin to earthworms andering around.
“Fellow protectors, I wish to make a move against Master Bai!” said the man sitting with his back to the main entrance, then continued: “That Master Bai is an Innate Spiritual Wisdom bearer, and the god has given us power, we must return it to the god!”
“God Envoy Xiao, that is a true official of the court! It will surely invite the violent reprisal of the governnt!”
“We have the god standing behind us, why fear the re power of Dongling County!” Amidst speaking, the man sitting with his back to the main entrance revealed his morbidly white teeth, as if they were flashing Cold Light in the dim stone house.
Upon hearing this, the others pondered for one breath.
“Do it!” soone slapped the table, and the stone table instantly exploded, splinters flying everywhere.
The flying fragnts struck the people, yet it was akin to a tickle.
“Sacrifice another Innate Spiritual Wisdom bearer to our god, and our god will surely grant us even greater power!” Upon saying this, the robust man who had spoken earlier also revealed his morbidly white teeth: “Having previously sacrificed the soul of the Heavenly Master from the Yellow Heaven Sect to our god, the taste of that power upgrade is sothing I still haven’t forgotten!”
“If we sacrifice another Innate Spiritual Wisdom bearer, with the generosity of our god, our strength would surely break through another level, and then what matter will the governnt’s slight counterattack be?”
“Previous fools even with our god as a backing dared not take risks, without sacrificing such beings to our god, how can they enjoy the gifts of our god? How can they assist our god in descending upon the world earlier?”
…
In front of a siheyuan.
Bang——
Jiang Ning swiftly descended from the sky.
“Who?!!” The two guards at the entrance heard the thud of a heavy object landing and imdiately turned their heads to scold.
The next mont.
They imdiately saw the figure of Jiang Ning.
“It’s Lord Jiang!” one of them spoke.
“Greetings to Lord Jiang,” the other quickly clasped his saber in salute.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Ning smiled.
“I kindly ask you both to convey my arrival, tell them Jiang Ning is here!”
“Lord Jiang, please hold on for a mont, I’ll go convey the ssage!” One of them saluted again with his saber.
Then prompted the person beside him, then strode towards the courtyard, disappearing from sight in an instant.
A mont later.
The sound of two footsteps ca from within the courtyard, growing closer.
The next mont.
Bai Luoyu swiftly appeared in his line of sight, while the guard who had gone to report followed closely behind, lagging half a body length behind.
“Brother Jiang!” Upon seeing Jiang Ning, Bai Luoyu clasped his hands and approached with large strides.
“Brother Bai!” Jiang Ning also smiled.
“How did Brother Jiang find here? When did you arrive?” Bai Luoyu glanced around and asked with a puzzled expression.
“I have my own ingenious thods!” Jiang Ning smiled.
“Haha!” Bai Luoyu couldn’t help but laugh.
Then he raised his hand in gesture: “Brother Jiang, please co in to talk!”
“Alright!” Jiang Ning nodded.
…
A mont later.
In the study.
“Brother Jiang, please pardon the shabby residence!” Bai Luoyu’s face had a slight air of apology.
At this ti, the study they were in bore no resemblance to the grandeur of a wealthy household.
The walls were constructed from cut stone blocks, rough in style, with large and small pits on the walls not covered by bookshelves.
The interior lighting was also dim.
In terms of fine decoration, it couldn’t compare with Bai Luoyu’s previous residence in Dongling City.
“It’s much better than where I used to live!” Jiang Ning shook his head.
He recalled his mory of the small ho in the outer city of Luoshui County.
And the mory of placing a basin under leaks on the roof during rainy days.
Compared to that ho, the siheyuan Bai Luoyu lived in was truly a luxurious residence.
Seeing a glint of reminiscence in Jiang Ning’s eyes, Bai Luoyu remarked.
“It seems Brother Jiang’s journey to this point has not been easy!”
Jiang Ning smiled and did not delve further into the topic.
“Brother Bai, the situation in Shishan County is dire!”
“Yes, very dire!” Bai Luoyu also nodded with a solemn expression, agreeing.
“Brother Bai has not sought aid from Dongling City? The famine in Shishan County is slowly spreading! If it continues for a few more months, people driven mad by hunger might even resort to cannibalism.” Jiang Ning spoke seriously.
While expanding his Divine Sense and locating Bai Luoyu.
He had also seen most of Shishan County.
The situation was dire, the scene in the dilapidated temple where at ginseng was being boiled was not an isolated incident.
He no longer had the mind to continue stopping it.
The root of this matter was the God Worship Sect.
The God Worship Sect was using such thods to widely recruit followers and expand its influence.
Anyone who consud the at ginseng, no matter how long it was boiled, would be tainted with the aura of the Blood and Flesh God and beco a follower and puppet of the Blood and Flesh God.
